Golden Fish Inn in County Durham

As a customer with a really sensitive gluten intolerance which can be triggered by the slightest cross contamination i have to say i have eaten from this chip shop on numerous occasions for over a year and I've never had any issues. If you're looking for good gluten-free choice from a chippy this is the place for you. Always a friendly welcome and lovely food.

Excellent take away. My Daughter and I are both coeliac. It is great having so much choice from a fish shop apart from just GF fish and chips. We love it and nick name it the Gluten Free Inn. Super staff too can't go wrong

Great selection of gluten stuff ..well nice ...friendly staff .highly recommend

We visit often and have never had a bad meal, or service. My husband is gluten-free and always feels safe eating from here. The portions are really big too!

I often order from here for fish and chips as someone with coeliac disease who needs a gluten free diet and have so far tried the battered creme egg, fish & chips and the leek and cheese fish cake and everything has been perfect. I feel really safe eating here and have never been poorly. Would 100% recommend, I usually order on the app ahead of time as it can get quite busy :-)

I ordered here tonight for the first time, I need a Gluten Free Diet, and they offer a GF Menu, with lots ts of options! The food was prepared and ready to collect within 10 minutes of Ordering! Amazing! Thank you 😊

I won the valentines competition💗🥂🍾 Fresh and excellent quality food Massive portions for your money Quick and easy polite service Theres always a lovely welcome atmosphere as soon as you walk in the door😍 Thank you again for my competition gifts Xx

I don't know where the positive reviews are coming from but we visited last night ready to place a BIG order (for 5 people). We waited patiently in line until we were asked for our order. Then another crowd came in and were served immediately, no apologies from the staff or the other customers. So we took our £40+ order elsewhere. Don't bother....

No fish shop comes closer, when fish & chips is on the menu, only the Golden fish inn hits the mark EVERYTIME! Be sure to phone your fish order before visiting cuts down waiting & your fish is perfect as it always has been

Greta service. Amazing quality food

Create food definitely recommend it !!

Portion was good fish nice white chunks chips were good as were peas . i should have asked for more salt/vinegar could barely taste either

Amazing food, absolutely love this place

Food is really good. My only complaint is if you order on the app and something goes wrong there's no way to change it or contact the shop. No one answers phone or if they do the line is awful

Great food, lovely staff, the best chippy in consett. Fish was excellent quality. Would highly recommend.

Very busy Friday night around 6 to 7 when I visited. I recommend ordering in advance. Slow service but everything was cooked fresh. Price was reasonable. My only issue was the fish was very greasy.

Outstanding. Best cod and chips of my life, and it was gluten free. Banging grub.

Really great value for money, friendly staff, good portion sizes and the best tasting fish and chips in town.

Amazing fish and chips gluten free too lots in the menu for gluten free reasonably priced

Gross, stale chips. Couldn't eat them. Waited 15 minutes for them to serve them. Worst core I've ever had. Asked for lots of salt and vinegar and got none. Overpriced with small portions. Wouldn't recommend.

Best chipshop in North east,friendly staff,well worth a visit,fish was delicious and great portion sizes xxx

Always great service and amazing food. Big portions and food cooked brilliantly

Chips were very disappointing like they'd been re-heats😞 😑

This Place Has The Best Service, Best Staff And The Best Food In Newcastle. Staff Always Get Your Order Spot On With No Mistakes. Best Place In The UK!

Ordered 2 large kebabs ( cost over £18)The meat was disgusting. I Think it had been in the tray from the night before and warmed up, I was a regular customer and when I went in the next time I mentioned this to the lady that was serving and she said she would report it. The next time I went in I ordered a bag of chips at £3.50 and had my card, she said I had to spend £5 to use the card. I won’t be back.

The very best fish and chips I’ve had. Homemade menu and the homemade tartare sauce is the best thing since sliced bread.

Friendly staff. Portion sizes are enormous. Telephone ordering can be frustrating as phone not always answered. Ordering via website is simple however it does have issues with time selection often showing next available collection a couple of hours ahead. Plus ordering & paying in advance doesn’t speed up collection, be prepared to still stand and wait beyond selected collection time. One bag of chips is enough for 2-3 people. We usually order 3 fish & 2 chips always lots of food left over.. it’s not cheap these days for a takeaway fish & chips .. last carry out was over £31 for 3 fish and two bags chips. Personally I’d like to see portions sizes reduced to smaller individual portions and prices adjusted accordingly. Everytime we have lots of food left over that ends up in the bin.

The best takeaway meal l have taste in a long while worth a 5 Stat and more

Efficient, very warm welcome, home made tar tar sauce and fish cakes were a different level. Drove 30 minutes to have another one of their fish cakes! Cheddar and leek is one to order! Queue was out the door but the service was quick and quality was fantastic.

Amazing food. Amazing staff. Can’t fault this place. Wish we found this little hidden gem sooner. Tartare sauce is unreal

I recently placed an online order totalling £55.00 which was to be collected. When I got home part of the order was missing even though I'd asked if the order was completed. When I eventually spoke to a member of staff to get a refund, shop is 10 miles away, I was told I'd receive a call back from the owner. Which I never got

Palatable amazing fresh traditional cuzines as well plenty of choices .

Fresh, crispy, and delicious! A must-visit for fish and chip lovers. 5 stars! I think the golden fish within the north east. Amazing staff and very clean premesis

Absolutely fantastic why go any were else

I'm a celiac. Hands down best Gluten Free cod and chips in the north east. Great size, Great price and great eating.

Fantastic service and food, highly recommended!!

Gorgeous fish and chips for Good Friday. All the other food is great too, they do the best kebab in consett. Easy to order using the app also.

I do not recommend to anyone with allergens, including gluten (despite such a big deal being made about the gluten free menu). We tried to order there for the first time tonight, and because my partner suffers from several food allergies, we obviously needed to discuss this on the phone before ordering (including the extent to which gluten is used in the kitchen). We tried to call them for about half an hour (10 calls, spaced out), and tried to contact them via Facebook. We got a few words on Messenger about them checking, then radio silence. Because of this, we could not safely place an order with them. Their website clearly states that you should call to ask about allergens, but obviously this was just a token comment. I understand that places get busy, but for the sake of a minute on the phone to allow people with allergens to access this restaurant, it's unacceptable. Even putting other common allergens on the menu would have been helpful. Very disappointed, and will make sure to share our experience with other gluten free / food allergy social media groups for the area, so other people with don't waste their time.

Used to be a good, chippy but its went down hill now! Chips are bland had a fish it was all batter very over priced

Very nice, lovely fish not a bone in sight. Chips a bit dark, but still nice, lashings of salt and vinegar what more do you want, well recommend.

Black pudding was fried perfectly. Great price

Best fish and chips around enough for me and my misses

Wowza!! Unreal food, thank you sooo much ❤️❤️

Great chippy and great food, never had a bad meal from here, fish and chips, kebabs both best in the area. Staff are great and very friendly and helpful too, def recommend if you’ve never been!

What’s not to like, plenty of choices, cooked to perfection and always a smile from the staff. I will be returning

How does a fish and chip shop on the outskirts of an old deprived mining town get to charging over £10 for take away fish and chips? And might I say, the chips were bland as could be. I can get the same (but delightfully tasty) meal at Papa John's in Whitby, and pay less than you do here. What more needs to be said!

5* service and 5* food absolutely amazing, shop is always immaculate food is always fresh and piping hot, staff are amazing and it’s just as good eating in or taking out. Been a customer for many years the best chippy I’ve been too. Highly recommend.

Quick service. Best fish and chips around.

Wide range of products all top quality,

Quick service, however batter had black burnt bits in so I think oil needs to be changed. Fish itself was good and flakey.

Fantastic fish & chips, best around and some of the best I have had!! Staff are friendly and offer a quick service, the fact it's busy says everything.

Great fish and chips fried to order.

Foods always beautiful and worth it. Staff are also great highly recommended

Good quality food. Maybe a little pricey for what you get

Easily the best chipper in Consett area. All of the food is home made, but can be hit and miss. Overall I'd recommended a visit. The classics are certainly good and a lot of effort is made to stand out. Most chippers in the area score a 1 or a 2, so 4 is a good score.

Way smaller & thinner fish tonight .... £7.50!!! Never again 😡. Sadly couldn't see an option to post pic 🙄

Good food. Worth the price. We had Veg burger and breaded cod fish. Service is nice and fast. Great choice of dips. Parking is little difficult; we parked on the opposite kerb.

Always great staff and tasty food!

Absolutely gorgeous fish very tender and cooked fresh chips are lovely as well

Absolutely lush. But the best thing is they do gluten free. So well done to them

The nicest chip shop in the area , had fish bites gorgeous with home made tartar sauce chips and mushy peas .... Lovely .💯👍.

Food is lovely, customer service is none existent, wait times are beyond the joke, order for a specific time and they still have you waiting more than 20 mins after accepted time. No apology. Do not expect fast pleasent service from here

Don’t be put off if you see the shop busy, it’s because they’re cooking everything fresh to order and the fish is always cooked so well. Very friendly staff and home made brownies are delicious. The kebabs are huge, you also get the option of a free portion of chips or pot of sauce. Notes: Card and cash accepted. Order on the app or in person. Street parking available. Lunchtime offers.

Best Fish n Chips in the UK nevermind the North East. Fish is cooked to order just how you like it. Portions are so large I've never known anyone finish a whole meal. Amazing choice of other foods on the menu with monthly specials. Great value Lunchtime Specials and the kebabs are something else. Can't rate this shop, food and staff highly enough. You won't be disappointed.

Really nice chips with curry sauce.

Quite simply banging and nice. I would return.

The best fish and chips in the country by far. Thank you all. Amazing staff and food

Fantastic fish & chip shop. Huge portions, great fish and lovely golden chips. We will be going back here!

Best fish and chips I’ve ever had! We eat here at least once a week. The quality of food is so much better than any of the other chippys around Consett. Highly recommend the fish and chips, cod leak and cheddar fishcake and the cheese patty!

Unbelievable as always. Best fish and chips around! We travel 25 mins each way for our food as we can’t find anywhere close to the quality. Fish and chips brilliant Cheese patty outstanding Service and quality impeccable as always!

Fresh food, 10/10, wouldn’t go anywhere else.

Definitely the best fish and chip shop I’m Consett the garlic sauce and chilli are just amazing

Fantastic fish shop reasonably priced too value for money

Excellent fish n chips shop. The batter is wonderful. The portions are huge. Had to ask for a smaller portion

Visited Golden fish while in Consett lovely cod& chips. Polite staff great service. Well worth a visit ☺️

Best fish and chips in the area, but make sure you order ahead especially on a Friday, or else expect a long queue! Generous portions and a very varied menu of other options if fish is not your thing.

Expensive but there fish is nice also large and chunky

First time going there. Really nice food

Best fish & chip shop in consett

So here I am leaving bad review.i don't do this as a rule but after waiting 1 hour for fish and chips.dont even live 1 mile from shop..and now saying another half hour.what a joke..this service is not very good..0

Award winning fish and chips the very best!

Wow what a place, the best fish in chips I’ve ever tasted and the customer is excellent.

Gonna have to spend more time at my partner's just so I can get the best fish n chips I've ever had. Their kebabs are awesome and you get huge portions. Highly recommended.

I collected an online order today at 4.30pm Normally the quality is 2nd to none, today however was not up to scratch. The fish was smaller and chip portion also smaller. I live 5 minutes away and they were both luke warm when opened. I noticed that the fish and chips were in the heated cabinet when I was served this may have had a difference with being warm them being warm not hot.

The best fish and chips in consett

So lovely food. I recommend all to take its taste!

Lovely fish and chips. Service very good too

The best Fish n Chip shop in the consett area.. Never disappointed.. They did forget my coleslaw on my 1/2 lb'er burger(which i think makes it taste 10x better) But can let that slide as their food is that good

Simply the best fish and chip shop ever

Fabulous hot tasty fresh food, lots of variety and fantastic staff. Need I say more?

The best fish and chips in the north east

Good quality food and good service.

Amazing local fish and chips! The team are very friendly and the food is always amazing! Super fresh white fish and I am so glad I live so close to this takeaway! Definitely the best in the area!

Fantastic food, great people.. Anne is lovely and always gives large portions. Vinny is the food whisperer!
